Laing Art Gallery

The gallery itself is not large, but it has interesting collections of paintings and different sections. Personally, I liked the photography section the most.

A lovely free art gallery. There is one exhibition where you pay, but plenty to see without that. The cafe is in a beautiful spacious room with more pictures on the wall.

Lovely exhobition of tiny drawings. They provide a magnify glass. I love the stsin glass did not have time for food

Free art gallery with a cafe and a shop. There's also an exhibition currently (With These Hands) that requires an admission charge, but I couldn't find information about it (on-site) so I chose not to visit it. However, the free exhibitions are nice on their own. Definitely worth a visit.

We went today with my daughter because she loves art, and it was incredible. I think everyone should take their kids there to see so many historical pieces and amazing artwork. There are five different art rooms you can visit for free, and there are more exhibitions available if you’re willing to pay.

Well laid out and themed galleries gave a nice afternoon activity. I particularly enjoyed the emphasis on local artists and subjects. It’s nice to see the heritage of the area through the eyes of both historic and more modern artists. The gallery was also free to visit which was a nice and welcome surprise.

A really cool art gallery with some great Newcastle glass and pottery. Short walk from Manors and Monument stations. Good cafe as well! 😀

The Lang Art Gallery is in a lovely building in the centre of Newcastle. The main part of the gallery is free and contains a variety of artworks. There is also a section where you can buy tickets. The current exhibition is ‘Romance to Realities’ where they are displaying art relating to the changing landscapes of the North. It was interesting to see paintings from Durham, Northumberland, and the Scottish boarders. I felt it was worth paying to see. The Gallery has a cafe but I cannot comment on this as I didn’t go in. The gift shop sold a selection of goods from books and cards to jewellery and bags. I travelled by train and it took less than 15 mins to walk from there.
